    Fell off the challenge bandwagon in round 256, managed to keep losing weight until June 12th when I hit 155.9 (70.7 kg). I fell off the weight loss wagon shortly after. Decided to start back up the day before Round 278 started.

    SW RND 280: 158.5 (71.9 kg)
    12/02- 158.4 (71.8 kg) Happy start of Round 280!
    12/03- 158.4 (71.8 kg) It was a cold day today. The lunch option at work was chili with cheddar cheese and green onions, cornbread and pudding. It definitely hit the spot. I was feeling lazy for dinner and went simple with a bowl of Costco meatballs.
    12/04- 158 (71.7 kg) It's another cold night. Ivar's potato soup, and biscuits for dinner. I had 2 biscuits which put me 25 calories over goal today, but I'm calling that close enough.
    12/05- 158.2 (71.8 kg) Tomorrow we're going to a Christmas potluck at DH's work. I plan to enjoy myself, but not eat to the point where I'm uncomfortably full. I will be wearing my ugly Christmas sweater too. I got one with flamingos in honor of my Florida roots.
    12/06- 158.2 (71.8 kg) Well, I did overeat today but not as badly as I first thought. I accidentally logged twice as many corn muffins as I actually ate. The corn muffins were my weakness and I ate too many chips too. But I had a great time and I'll pick back up tomorrow.
    12/07- 158.2 (71.8 kg) Same weight three days in a row. I'll take it.
    12/08- 157.8 (71.6 kg) I slept through my husband and dog getting up for their morning walk so I didn't join them. I must have been sleeping hard because he told me he hit snooze three times this morning and the dog was jumping on and off the bed. I did get a little more Christmas shopping done today, and stayed within calorie budget too.
    12/09- 157.4 (71.4 kg) 1.5 pounds (.7 kg) to go until I'm back at my lowest weight of this year. It would be neat if I meet that or beat that by the end of the year, but I'm not going to sweat it if I don't.
    12/10- 157.5 (71.4 kg) I decided on an easy dinner- Eggos, and since I had some room for calories I decided to experiment and put on the normal amount of syrup I would for 4 waffles (filling those squares up!) and weigh it out after. I ended up with just over 3 servings for 330 calories! Just in syrup. Dangerous stuff.
    12/11- 156.5 (71 kg) A whoosh this morning, but expecting a sizeable swing up after dinner tonight. I know I'm an emotional eater. A friend and I have been trying to have dinner for months, and I've been cancelled on a couple times, the last time less than an hour beforehand with a litany of flimsy excuses when dinner invitation, date, time and location were chosen by her in advance. This time around, I suggested 3 days this week; she said tonight would be the only one of the 3 that worked. I offered 3 potential dinner options, and was left on delivered all week. I know I'm a B list friend, but I have been struggling with accepting the friendship on its own terms and not feeling hurt and angry. So I decided to take myself out tonight since she never responded. And I ordered the giant chicken sandwich with the fries and queso and I'm stuffed. It was delicious and I did have a peaceful, relaxing dinner instead of wallowing in negativity, but I wish I'd eaten less.

    @desolate_angel - Hmm, perhaps the "B-list" title belongs to your flighty friend? Just know that you are worth taking care of!

    @desolate_angel This made me think of my FORMER BFF. We met in collage in 1969 and remained friends for over 50 years- through every life crises we were there for each other. A couple of years ago she met a fellow and they travelled the country together but he got sick snd the returned to Las Vegas where he passed. She called me several times in tears and I went and picked her up. I tried to keep her involved by scheduling manicures, helping at my daughter’s school, anything to keep her from dwelling on her loss. I scheduled and confirmed and she canceled (mainly by not showing up or doing the mani earlier with someone else without letting me know.) The last straw was when I called to see how her cataract surgery had gone. She said she’d call me back but she still hasn’t. It’s been two years. 🤷‍♀️ Three strikes, your out. Don’t get me wrong, I know me and if she called tomorrow and needed something I would probably be there to pick up the pieces.

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    @quiltingjaine I am just curious if this is your fluffy friend who kept implying you should eat more or lose less weight? I have often wondered what happened with that friend.

    @deepwoodslady Former BFF was at one time very large (over 360#) but “Fluffy” and her husband were the ones who told me I was (basically) going to die of if I didn’t eat carbs. They quit speaking to us when we refused to get Covid and Flu shots. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️
